Oh and yes sir it'll stay on. I disconnected the pump, stuck my multimeter leads on the harness side. Turn the key on. Shows power for half a second. Then goes off. When I crank it, power comes back and stay as long as I'm cranking it over. I believe everything electrical is working as it should. Except for the pump. I'll get a new one soon. they're fairly cheap. As well and cleaning both fuel tanks.

It's probably all of those things after see the state of the filter lol

That's how I tested it. I brought a battery with me under the truck and ran a couple wires into the pump harness. It just clicks hard and that's it. Still haven't checked the low pressures.

I've got power to the pump. It's just clicks though. Doesn't seem like it tries to run. When I tested the pump I unhooked the pump and put my leads in the circuit side plug. It comes on for maybe one second. Not the several that's everyone says. Maybe because Ive got the pump unplugged? I've got power to the pump as when I turn it over as well. I went to change the fuel filter (lots of gel, appeared to be factory to) and I noticed that one oring on the bottom of the fuel tank selector valve was half way out. I tried to put it back in but I made it worse, the oring slipped out and whatever plunger it was holding retracted into the housing and I'm unable to get to it. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get to it.

Hmmm I didn't think to turn it over. I'll check it tomorrow. I will thank you for all your help. It's greatly appreciated.

Oh and yes sir I can get it to sputter by squirting some gasoline in the intake. Kind of hard to get it catch for more than a second doing it by myself. All fuses are good. One fusible link is held together with a wire nut. I'm gonna replace it as soon as I can find one. If not I'll use a regular fuse.

I'll have to look into getting one Gary. Yes sir ive got 12 volts going to the pump. From what I've read the pump is supposed to charge for 3 seconds. I'm not getting one mississippi out of mine. Just a flash of 12 volts. Inertia switch was popped out I pressed it back in. I haven't tested the low pressure in the tanks yet. I plan on dropping them to clean the front one at least. It doesn't have a cap on it. No telling what's in there or how long it's been off. Gonna order a filter as well.

I found a CD rom on ebay with all the manuals for $25. Now I just gotta find a computer that still reads cds. Lol

Sorry Gary I must've jumped youre message. I would love to be added to the map. Springtown TX 76082 I'm trying to determine if the fuel pump works. I brought a battery underneath the truck disconnected the pump and jumped the positive and negative terminal to the positive and negative terminal on the battery. The pump clicks but thats it. I would it expect it to hum trying to pump. Is the click normal? Would ohming the pump tell me if its bad?

I didn't take it that way sir. I'm sorry I didn't mean to sound rude. I'm not a big fan of text for that very reason lol. It's hard to read people's social cues. What books do you recommend. Might go get a Chilton here soon.

I was just guessing. It looks like the same wire coming out of the loom in the same spot. Mine is definitely orange though.

I can also see were the orange wire might go at g711 I just can't seem to find the other end.

Here's the second wire in question it appears to go to the air charge sensor which I don't think I have.

I must've miss read it. I thought it was the o/t but I'm not seeing any tan. It appears to be solid orange.

Thank you!! That picture is a little bit clearer. The wires in question are to the left of the plug.
